Njengoba unyaka wezinkonzo ususondela ekupheleni namuhla, zindla ngeqiniso lokuthi uNkulunkulu ukubiza ukuthi uvuke ngokuphelele
"Qaphela ukuthi izinhliziyo zakho zingalali ngenxa yemibuthano exokozelayo, ukudakwa kanye nezinkathazo zempilo yansuku zonke, futhi ngalolo suku zikufice ungazelele njengesicupho." ULuka 21: 34-35a
Lolu usuku lokugcina lonyaka wethu wokukhulekela! Futhi ngalolu suku, ivangeli lisikhumbuza ukuthi kulula kanjani ukuba ngamavila empilweni yethu yokukholwa. Kusikhumbuza ukuthi izinhliziyo zethu zingaba nobuthongo ngenxa "yokuzijabulisa nokudakwa kanye nezinkathazo zempilo yansuku zonke". Ake sibheke lezi zilingo.
Okokuqala, sixwayiswa ngokungahambi amaphathi nokudakwa. Lokhu impela kunjalo ezingeni elingokoqobo, okusho ukuthi ngokusobala kufanele sigweme ukusebenzisa kabi izidakamizwa notshwala. Kepha kusebenza futhi kwezinye izindlela eziningi lapho sithola "ukulala" ngenxa yokuntula ukuzithiba. Ukuphuza ngokweqile kungenye yezindlela zokubalekela imithwalo yempilo, kepha kunezindlela eziningi esingakwenza ngazo. Noma nini lapho sinikezela ngokweqile kolunye uhlobo noma kolunye, siqala ukuvumela izinhliziyo zethu zilale ngokomoya. Noma nini lapho sifuna ukuphunyuka okwesikhashana empilweni ngaphandle kokuphendukela kuNkulunkulu, siyazivumela ukuba sozele ngokomoya.
Okwesibili, le ndima ikhomba "izinkathazo zokuphila kwansuku zonke" njengomthombo wobuthongo. Kaningi sibhekana nokukhathazeka empilweni. Singazizwa sikhungathekile futhi sithwele ngokweqile ngento ethile noma enye. Lapho sizizwa sicindezelwe impilo, sithambekele ekufuneni indlela yokuphuma. Futhi kaningi, "indlela yokuphuma" yinto esenza silale ngokomoya.
UJesu ukhuluma ngaleli vangeli njengendlela yokusiphonsela inselelo yokuthi sihlale siphapheme futhi siqaphile empilweni yethu yokukholwa. Lokhu kwenzeka lapho siphethe iqiniso ezingqondweni nasezinhliziyweni zethu nasemehlweni ethu entandweni kaNkulunkulu.Mzuzu lapho sibhekisa amehlo ethu emithwalweni yempilo bese sihluleka ukubona uNkulunkulu phakathi kwezinto zonke, siba nobuthongo ngokomoya bese siqala , ngomqondo othile, ukuzumeka.
Njengoba unyaka wezinkonzo ususondela ekupheleni namuhla, zindla ngeqiniso lokuthi uNkulunkulu ukubiza ukuthi uvuke ngokuphelele. Ufuna ukunakwa kwakho ngokuphelele futhi ufuna ukuthi usanguluke ngokuphelele empilweni yakho yokholo. Beka amehlo akho kuye futhi umvumele aqhubeke ekugcina ukulungele ukubuya kwakhe okuseduze.
Nkosi, ngiyakuthanda futhi ngifuna ukukuthanda nakakhulu. Ngisize ngihlale ngiphapheme empilweni yami yokholo. Ngisize ngigcine iso lami likuwe kuzo zonke izinto ukuze ngihlale ngikulungele uma uza kimi. Jesu ngiyakholelwa kuwe.
